Wrecked Quincy in bad conditions can’t float
Reports from up the river near the Quincy accident say work continues on the steamer. Three divers repair the hull underwater, wearing full diving gear as crowds watch. Officials say it will take about two weeks to raise and move the Quincy to Eagle Point, delaying commission into late summer or early fall and costing several thousand dollars plus lost passenger traffic.

Syrians contrasted by a La Crosse dispute over bigamy charges
Carl S Munyer of the North side objects to newspapers labeling all Syrians by a single charge after a local case of alleged bigamy between Elias Asfoor and Bashara Bo Mahoom. He argues Syrians, like other national groups, include both law abiding and problematic individuals. The case, tied to Asfoor and Bo Mahoom through an aunt, is with authorities and not yet in court.
